The Boston Common Golf vs. Atlanta Drive GC matchup on Monday, February 23, 2026 (5 p.m. ET on ESPN, at SoFi Center) is one of the most anticipated TGL games of Season 2 so far.
The biggest current news for Atlanta Drive GC (the defending 2025 TGL champions) is Justin Thomas's return to competitive golf following back surgery. JT announced on social media this week that he'll make his first start since undergoing microdiscectomy surgery.
This comes ahead of his expected PGA TOUR return later in the Florida Swing (possibly the Cognizant Classic, which starts Feb 26). Thomas was a key player in Atlanta's inaugural SoFi Cup title last season, and his comeback adds major firepower for their push.
Atlanta remains a popular brand with many gamblers. They bring a strong Hammer strategy and experience.
Boston Common Golf (aka the Ballfrogs) are one of the hottest teams in the 2026 TGL (Season 2). After a rough 0-4-1 finish in the inaugural 2025 season (dead last), they've bounced back strong with an undefeated 2-0-0 record through their first two matches.
Boston Common Golf is tied for the top of the SoFi Cup Standings with Atlanta Drive GC at 4 points each (Atlanta has played one extra match, but Boston holds a tiebreaker edge with no losses and 15 holes won).

SoFi Center, Palm Beach State College, Palm Beach Gardens, FL, will host the TGL matchup between Boston Common Golf and the Atlanta Drive GC on Monday, February 23, 2026. Tee time is at 5 p.m. ET with television coverage on ESPN.
Oddsmakers opened with Boston Common Golf as a -124 moneyline favorite with the Atlanta Drive GC as a +100 moneyline dog.
Atlanta Drive GC
Justin Thomas (USA) – Making his 2026 debut post-back surgery; huge return for clutch singles and overall firepower.
Patrick Cantlay (USA) – Steady, all-around contributor.
Billy Horschel (USA) – Leading the team in points and stats this season; known for big moments (e.g., 2025 finals winner).
Lucas Glover (USA) – Strong in triples/alternate-shot and recent action.
Alternates such as Chris Gotterup (heavy rotation earlier due to absences) or Corey Conners may fill in if needed, but with JT back and this being a must-win push for top seeding (plus their doubleheader later vs. LA), the full core stars are anticipated.
In their last game, Jupiter Links GC defeated Atlanta Drive GC 8-6. This handed Atlanta their first loss of the 2026 season, snapping a seven-match winning streak (dating back to late 2025, including their title run).
The defending SoFi Cup champions have a playoff pedigree and strong singles play (the highest historical singles hole-win %). Justin Thomas's return (first action post-back surgery) is a massive boost.
Boston Common Golf
Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland) – Anchor with elite length and form; has dominated early 2026 drives.
Hideki Matsuyama (Japan) – Precision and consistency in formats.
Keegan Bradley (USA) – Clutch performer and team leader in points.
Adam Scott (Australia) – Veteran presence for strategy and short game.
Alternates like Michael Thorbjornsen have stepped up in prior matches (e.g., key in the 9-1 win over The Bay), but the core four are the expected starters for this high-profile matchup.
Last time out, Boston Command Golf defeated The Bay Golf Club 9-1. The Ballfrogs are transformed from their winless 2025 season. They've dominated early (e.g., a blowout 9-1 win over The Bay, a strong win over LA), with Rory McIlroy's length off the tee, Michael Thorbjornsen's putting, and Keegan Bradley's consistency shining through.
Atlanta Drive GC vs. Boston Common Golf Best Bets
Boston's roster upgrades and current form flip the script. Sharps are looking at over on total points or Boston ML if expecting a competitive, high-scoring battle. Atlanta excels in strategic Hammer usage; Boston has improved putting.
